I am still here. I started my new job on Monday. That first morning was complete with my manager leaving because her mom had a stroke and with the whole computer system being down. Because there wasn't much that could be done, I read manuals and observed co-workers (which was interesting and I believe insightful...at least one person appears to be one to be wary of sharing anything personal with, if you get my drift). The last couple mornings have been better. I must admit that I don't feel very warmly received, I think everyone was pretty content with how things were, but they are being kind enough. It's a positive thing there that I'm quiet and can keep my own counsel. Regardless, I am thankful for the job and I'm sure that with time I'll find my niche. It does make me miss my bookstore days and all the great people I worked with there.
My house now seems to be in a continual state of untidiness. My kitchen needs a dish fairy. And every night when I go to bed, I have troubling dreams about work. It's just the adjustment period, right?
I make no promises to update with regularity, but I'll try to keep up when there are things to be said and I have the chance.
Happy Wednesday!
